How to change default view

How do I change default view of files from icon to list. For example,
c-program files, then a list of all the folders under this directory, etc.
I have a much easier time scanning lists instead of all of the icons. I
would like to default all of my directories to view lists rather than icons.
TIA :-)

Brandy, the only way I know to change the view is using the "view" setting
located in "My Computer". I click on "My computer" then "view" then selct
"list" vice "tile". I believe this changes all directories and
sub-directories to list
view vice the default tile view.

Hi Brandy,

Run this edit, then reset your preferred folder options:

Increase Folder View Options Limit: (Line 2)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

Windows Explorer/View/[Select Accordingly]. Then Tools/Folder
Options/View/Apply to All Folders.
